About the Author

Born and raised on the small island of Manhattan, Rabbi Brian grew-up exceedingly rational and thought he was going to be a math-major in college and architect later. Asking the question why too many times led him to rabbinical school where he fought for answers and struggled with those he got. In 2000, he left mainstream, organized, and denominational religion to pursue Religion-Outside-The-Box. Rabbi Brian specializes in the issues of those not comfortable with 'one-size-fits-all' religion, those a bit anti-organized religion, and those who identify themselves as 'spiritual but not religious.'

This review is from: How To Find Out What (The) God (Of Your Understanding) Wants from You (Paperback)

I was given this book as a gift. The first day I started reading it, I was enjoying it, found it easy to read and understand. I only reached page 23. After a particularly grueling week, I was feeling angry, frustrated and vulnerable. I saw this book on my night table. I picked it up and read it through in one sitting this time and completed every suggested exercise. It was exactly what I needed at that point! The book helped, the exercises helped. I felt helped. Now, I can refer back to the exercise that helped me most whenever I feel overwhelmed, lonely or just down.

You don't have to be of any particular religious belief - just open to new experiences. I highly recommend this book to everyone. Have fun! Do the exercises!
